Central Piers, Ferry terminal complex in Central, Hong Kong.

Central Piers is a complex of ten adjacent jetties on Victoria Harbour, serving as departure points for ferry connections between Hong Kong Island and surrounding areas. The piers stretch along the Central waterfront and form a long row of covered waiting areas with access to the water.

The current piers were built in the 1990s and early 2000s under the Airport Core Programme, whose Central Reclamation created land for Hong Kong station and forced the old piers' demolition. The first new piers opened on 9 May 1995, when the outlying island routes moved to Piers 1 to 7. The Star Ferry shifted to Piers 7 and 8 on 12 November 2006, and Pier 9 replaced Queen's Pier on 26 April 2007.

Pier 9, opened at midnight on 26 April 2007, replaced Queen's Pier and has a glass canopy roof that lets daylight in; its design made it a regular set for TVB dramas such as Forensic Heroes III and ViuTV's Ossan's Love. The 2024 film Customs Frontline staged a cargo ship collision with the piers at Piers 6 to 8.

Pier number 7 operates the Star Ferry line to Tsim Sha Tsui, while other piers offer routes to Discovery Bay, Lantau Island, and Cheung Chau. Most departures run frequently during the day, with fewer connections in the evening.

Pier 8 houses a museum dedicated solely to seafaring, using objects and documents to trace the development of the harbor. Visitors can follow how shipping changed over the decades.
